THE PRosPECToRs and mine owners on
the Western borders of the Territory
in the Deep Creek country, are clamor-
Gus for railway, and they claim ability
to demonstrate that the construction o t
q line to them would be profitable in
vestment. 1t is certain that the dis
trict contains immense quantities OF
lead and silver ores, and while much OF
these are of low grade, there is some OF
the richer class, as considerable lots
have been transported by team to the
Central Pacific, more than a hundred
miles distant. 1t is believed that with
d railroad running into the camp, and
cheap rates of freight, Deep Creek will
become one of the most productive dis
tricts in the country. Without a rail
way it is impossible to work the mines
ss the ore will not pay the heavy cost Of
transportation by mules. The matter
is worthy the investigation and consid-
Grafton of both the Union Pacific and
Denver & Rio Grande.

THE BALLOT WOULD DO 1T.

AT the election in Chambersburg, n.
j., on the 18th instant, q Chinaman
went to the polls and voted the straight
Republican ticket. He took his natur-
alization papers with him, neatly
framed, in a box with a glass cover.
Fearing trouble when he offered his
vote, he asked policeman to accom-
pany him to the polls.
The poor fellow was bright and intel
ligent, but he wasn't bright enough to
understand that his tight TO vote was
more protection to him than an army
of policemen. 1t is because the Chinese
do not vote. because they take neither
interest nor active part in the
politics of this country that they are
imposed upon, abused and lnaltreated
by every body. If the Chinese were
voters and could be manipulated by
party leaders as others are manipulated
we would have no more of outrages
perpetrated on them; If the poor Mon
goiisns would vote the demagogues
would not be heard melting MODS to
persecute and drive them out; the cry
of Chinese cheap labor" would be a
thing of the past, end the copper
colored Asiatics would be Iauded for
their industry, their temperance ana
their faithfulness. The vote would
transform what are now denounced as
Chinese vices into commendable virtues,
worthyo of emulation. The ballot in the
hands of the Chinese, woald at once
bring the MonRolisns under the pro-
lection of politicians, and statesmen
would vie with each other in efforts to

MISLEADING FIGURES.

The announcement from Washington
the other day that over 1000 ,000,0 {
acres of public land was yet unsur-
veyed, is being used by some of the
newspapers as an argument in favor OF
the further encouragement of immi-
grafton from Europe, it being urged
that this vast area will furnish homes
for millions of people. 1t is probably
true that there is so much land that
has not been surveyed, and still be-
longs to the government; but it is
equally true that the most of this land
will remain unsurveyed for all time.
We forget how many hundred thous-
and acres of this land was credited
to Utah, but tine area was i'm
mense. If one will look over
the country. however, he will
discover that these acres are spread out
on mountains and hopelessly sterile
plains, the land that is tillable being
practically gone. What is true of this
Territory is true of the other Territories
and States. the best land having been
surveyed and sold by government. The
man desiring homestead to-day
would be put to some trouble to find
one that was really desirable. In few
years there will be no public land worth
demonstrating, when the government
sales will be restricted to such tracts as
can be disposed of for grazing purposes.

THE RAILROAD INVESTIGATION

It must be confessed that the Pacific
Railroads investigating committee is
wormlng from President Adams some
facts regarding the Union Pacific which
do not reflect credit upon those who
have controlled the destinies of that
great corporation. Open and fragrant
violations of the law are shown, and
the only excuse for them is the flimsy
one that the company's lawyers said the
crooked proceedings might be taken.
But after all, what will the investiga-
ton amount TOT What good can come
from It? The harm, whatever may be
shown, has been done, and it cannot be
undone, nor can any reparation. be
made. 1t is idle to lock the stable
after the horse has been stolen.
What will it avail to show
that the Union Pacific built branches
without authority of law, or that it
guaranteed bonds in direct defiance of
its charter? The utmost the govern
ment could do, asiLe from the prosecu-
ton of half dozen officials, would be
to take the main line of the Union Pa
cifc, and the stockholders would prob
ably rejoice If this were done, if they
could retain the branches, which are
really the only paying portions of the
Union Pacific system. 1t was, doubt
less, a violation Of the Union Pacific
charter, to construct a branch and guar
sntee the bonds, but it was wise and
commendable violation in every. in
stance except in the case of the Oregon
Short Line, that immense white
elephant which wGs, seemingly, con-
structed for the purpose of putting
money into the pockets of the builders,
and not to help the Union Pacific. The
other branches, SO far as we know, are,
all valuable. The Utah & Northern for
years enabled the Union Pacific to pay
dividends, and is to-day paying road
and useful feeder to the main line.
The investigation will expose many
irregularities on the part of the Union
Pacific and other subsidized roads, But
how it is going to help matters, only the
Congressman who drafted the bill will
be able to understand.

THE MEMPHIS Avalanche thinks the
Democrats may be forced to nominate
Randall for President, as his tariff
views will save Tennessee and virgins
to the Democrats. This is peculiar kind
of argument; why not have the Demo-
Gratis nominate Blaine. and trust to his
tariff ideas to carry Iowa, Kansas
Pennsylvania, the New England States
and at the same time save Missouri
and Tennessee? The Democrats will
be as apt to nominate Blaine as Ran

A New Steamship Line.

Capt. j. n. Knowles left San Francisco for
elegant passenger steamship San Pueblo for
her trip to the former port. The following
particulars of this addition to the Pacific
Coast merchant marine are from a late San
Francisco paper.
The City of Pueblo is 2590. ton vessel
and was built for the West India trade in
1882, for Alexander d Sons. She is an iron
steamer, $50 feet long, 3S115 feet beam and %
feet depth of hold. She has seven water
tight compartments and her compound en-
gines are supplied with 43-inch and S6-inch
cylinders, with 60-inch stroke. They are of
3OOO-horse power and propel the vessel at
sIxteen-knot rate of speed.
"Ihe best time ever made from New York
to Havana was made by the City of Pueblo,
aud she will, when added to the Pacific coast
fleet, be the fastest as we'll as the finest pas
senger steamship out of this port.
'It is at present impossible to state
whether the new steamer will be employed
in the coast or in the Sandwich Islands
service; indeed, it is a question whether the
owners have themselves decided upon this
point.
The purchasers of the Pueblo are the
owners of the Jesse II. Freeman, now in this
port, and have recently contracted with the
Union Iron Works for the construction of
another steamer of 1000 tons.
"It is said that these gentlemen will, at an
early day. establish a line between this port
and the Sandwich Islands, and that other
large and fast ships will be added as rapidly
as possible"

In the manipulation of the Juice there is
another loss, which for convenience call loss
IN manufacture. Present, loss in manufac-
ture per cent. Formerly loss in manufac-
ture, 30 per cent. Gain for vacuum pan, tri-
pie effect, and filter presses, % per cent. 1t
is doubtful If many of our mills get this loss
even at present down to z per cent, but it
can be done. Ten per cent. is probably very
near the average loss. But it is expected
that the new vacuum cleaner will lower this
loss considerably and bring this department
into state bordering on perfection.
There are quite number of persons that
think all new inventions are 'suseless," par
ticularly if they know very little about them.
And there are others that are wondering if
these improvements will ever come to an end,
or if sugar mills will ever be considered COM
plete and perfect. / have my doubts about
1t too. In fact l think it ''forlorn hopen
as far as some of the Kohala mills are con-
cerned. 1t would take century to bring
some of them into a state of completeness.
Seriously, think there is some hope for
some of these mills. 1t is seen that some of
the boiling houses are nearly complete al
ready, but in crushing there is still consid-
cradle loss, which will have to be remedied
before we can boast about them
In conclusion, | would say / consider no
mill complete that loses 10 to 10 per cent of
the juice In the trash, or that allows the heat
from the vacuum pan and double effect to be
wasted IN the condensers. Neither are mills
complete unless they have a triple effect,
vacuum cleaner, precipitators, and iron filter
presses. VETERAN OBSERVER.

w. C. T. U.

When Mr.. Booth was in Honolulu last
January one of his lectures, If | remember
correctly, was to be on the subject of pro-
hibitlOn. The audience, who filed the hall
of the Y. NJ. c. A. building, was composed of
some of the best people of Honolulu, many
of whom needed no new arguments to make
them supporters of any measure looking
toward that desirable end, prohibition. Yet
the speaker who made the Introductory re-
marks before Mr.. Booth began his lee
ture said 1t was impossible for the peo-
pie whom this audience represented to
accomplish prohibition by legislation,
because they had not the voting power.
The great majority of the voters were
natives, who as policemen, soldiers, vol
unteers or as holding office, or hoping to
hold Office, were entirely under the domino
tion of the King and his so called Ministers.
The elected Legislature was nine tenths com
posed of district judges, sneritfs and deputy
sherltfs. tax assessors and tax collectors and
other place men, whose election had been
secured by inscriptions use of bribery and
power. 1t was IN vain to address arguments
or reasons to such a Legislature, for the
members did not vote according TO convlc-
ton, but upon order. Our constitution con-
.emplated constitutional, not an arbitrary
government. But we did not have il; it was
not representative, but miS-representa-
tive government. The hearty applause of
the audience confirmed the truth of these
opinions. But since the Both OF last June,
another order of things prevails here. We
have now representative government aud
many of the people who composed that audi
ence last January have cast their votes for
the mobiles and representatives who will COM
pose the next Legislature. Reform" has
been the watch word and rallying cry by
which men have been stirred and gathered to
bring about this new state Of affairs. Doubt
less the representatives. aud mobiles elect are
going into the next Legislature with the firm
purpose of carrying forward this reform into
such places as they can reach by making
laws. The men who are hearty believers IN
the restriction or suppression of the evils OF
the liquor traffic and opium business have
now Il chance to use their votes to carry their
convictions to practical issue. Liquor and
opium are the two greatest evils under which
we are suffering; these two traffics greatly
need reforming, and the reform which wonld
be best for all concerned would be to reform
them cut of existence. Now they flourish at
the expense of better aud legitimate bus-
ness. In some way or at some pout the evil
influence of the saloon is felt by every busi-
ness in the islands, and it is high time now
that good men have the power that they
should work effectively against so great an
evil.

Sole Survivor of a Whaler.

j. b. Vincent, sole survivor of the wrecked
whaler Napoleon, that called at Honolulu in
1885 on her way to the Behring Sea, has
arrived in San Francisco. His account of
the sufferings of the ships company before
they died is distressing. A good constitu-
ton pulled him through and he lived with
the Indians, who buried his comrades and
proved very kind to him. In January of this
year he gave deer huntsman me usage
carved on piece of wood, with orders to
deliver it to the first whaler sighted The
billet came into the hands of Captain Crogan
of the Hunter, telling him that j. b. Vim
cent, sole survivor of the Napoleon, was
living about ten miles southwest of Cape
Navarin. The Hunter could not reach the
place on account of the ice, but Captain
Crogan caused copy of the message to be
given to every whaler. 1t finally reached the
commander of the exploring steamer Bear,
who at once set out and rescued Vincent.

| be done without costing too much.
If SO, a steamer that now burns $50

tricity is his profit.
A MONSTER meeting of unemployed
sugar retiners was recently held in
Hyde Park, London, to agitate for
countervailing duties to meet the sys
TEN of sugar bounties adopted in
other countries. 1t was stated at the
meeting that $4,000 men formerly en-
gagged in sugar refining are now un
employed. However, it is on record
that the cheap sugar England gets
from the bounty paying countries
has caused expansion of many indus
tries in which sugar forms raw ma
terial.
Mr. MCCLELLAN, Postmaster General
of Canada, has resigned his seat in
the House of Commons, after admit
ting bribery by agents in his election
Contested elections are there tried
before Judges of the Supreme Court
so that majorities in Parliament how
ever corrupt cannot maintain an ille-
gally elected member in his seat.
The last mail, after the above was
in type, tells of another Canadian
Minister, Knight at that, unseated
on acknowledgment of bribery by
agents.
"The greatest sensation in the
London musical world at present Is
the pianoforte playing of Joseph
Holman. Although only ten years
of age, he has as big tone as Ru-
bernstein or Bulow,' and his express
sion is simply indescribable. No such
musical phenomenon has been heard
since the days of Mozart" The fore
going from an exchange is interest
ing in connection with the presence
in Honolulu of little Elise Joran, who
played the pianoforte in public with
great acceptance at almost as tender
an age as the young London mu-
sician.
The purchase by Jay Gould of the
Baltimore & Ohio telegraph system,
hitherto with its cable connections an
effectual buffer against monopoly,
has caused leading journals of the
United States to seriously discuss
Government telegraphs, boon pos
sessed by the people of Great Brit
ain. While the idea in its logical
outcome seems to tend toward social
ism, it may be asked why the Govern
ment should not transmit the peo
ple's telegraph messages as well as
their letters. And, if those, then why
not their merchandise and their per-
sons? Where, indeed, is the line to
be drawn where paternal government
shall cease?
